In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we uncover what happens when your dream business turns into a mental and spiritual battlefield. Scott Gilbert, med spa entrepreneur and founder of the 5 Growth Engines system, shares how COVID-19 dismantled his thriving startup overnight and left him grappling with despair, debt, and identity loss. This isn't just a story of financial failure—it's a raw look into the mental health toll of entrepreneurship. Scott opens up about how survival mode led him to betray the very values he built his business on, and how hitting rock bottom became the foundation for a completely new system—one that's sustainable, client-focused, and soul-aligned. If you're a founder silently struggling or feel burned out from trying to “do it all,” this episode is your wake-up call. Tune in to learn how simplifying your business model, embracing discomfort, and reclaiming your integrity can rebuild both your revenue and your resilience.   About the Guest:Scott Gilbert is a med spa entrepreneur and creator of the 5 Growth Engines—a framework that helped him rebuild a seven-figure business after losing everything during COVID-19. His mission is to help service-based business owners grow without sacrificing their mental health or integrity.   Key Takeaways : Scott's business was devastated when COVID-19 hit just a day after his med spa launched, leaving him with over $400K in investment and no clients. The mental health collapse that followed showed him how financial desperation can hijack integrity and create cycles of self-betrayal. He explains how chasing short-term wins led him to become exactly what he set out to change—selling over serving. His transformation began with one walk, one podcast, and one thread of hope that led to a complete mindset shift. Scott's 5 Growth Engines now help business owners move from burnout to sustainable success with a focus on client results and mental well-being. A core message: simplify your offering, serve deeply, and don't outsource what you haven't learned to manage. He breaks the myth that outsourcing without understanding can lead to freedom—instead, it creates disconnection and poor decision-making.   Connect with the Guest:Send Scott a message on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsscottgilbert_/Message him “Avik” to receive a free copy of his 5 Growth Engines blueprint.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM Me on PodMatch – Send your story pitch:DM Me Here:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST: Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES: Business Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/corporatepodcasting/ Individual Podcast Management – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/Podcasting/ Share Your Story With the World – https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/shareyourstory STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@healthymind-healthylifeInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.podThreads – https://www.threads.net/@healthyminds.podMedium – https://medium.com/@contentbyavikFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/reemachatterjee/LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcasterPinterest – https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW Google Review – https://www.podpage.com/bizblend/reviews/new/ Submit a Video Testimonial – https://famewall.healthymindbyavik.com/ #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #MentalHealthAwareness #EntrepreneurMentalHealth #BurnoutRecovery #FinancialFreedom #MindsetShift #PodcastLife #BusinessLeadership #WellnessPodcast #HealingThroughFailure #GrowthMindset #ScottGilbert #MedSpaEntrepreneur #BusinessResilience #ResilientEntrepreneur #founderstory #covidimpact #sustainablebusiness

Racial trauma. Misdiagnosis. Medical gaslighting.This episode explores how racism becomes a public health crisis—especially when it comes to the mental health of Black communities.I'm joined by Dr. Ingrid Waldron—professor, researcher, and author of From the Enlightenment to Black Lives Matter—for a powerful and unfiltered conversation about the systemic forces that shape how mental illness is diagnosed, treated, and too often ignored in Black bodies.Originally recorded for National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, this conversation is more timely than ever.We discuss:Why schizophrenia is disproportionately diagnosed in Black menHow the “strong Black woman” trope blocks empathy and access to careWhat medical gaslighting actually looks like in clinical settingsThe physical toll of racial stress and internalized traumaResources Mentioned:

The mental health crisis claiming America's youth has reached epidemic proportions, and it's happening in families from all backgrounds. Our recent podcast delves into this growing tragedy that's claiming lives through addiction, overdoses, and suicide at an alarming rate.We explore how even "good families" with strong support systems are losing young people to these devastating outcomes. The conversation reveals how COVID isolation accelerated the crisis by depriving developing minds of crucial socialization opportunities that build coping mechanisms and resilience.The fentanyl epidemic emerges as a central villain in this story. This synthetic opioid, frequently used to lace other substances, makes drugs exponentially more dangerous – as evidenced by the heartbreaking story of seven West Point cadets who died after taking what they believed was Tylenol. Today's drugs are significantly more potent than previous generations, creating deadly situations even for first-time or casual users.Perhaps most troubling is how we respond as communities. When families lose someone to addiction or suicide, they often face ostracism rather than compassion. Some communities turn away from these families at their time of greatest need, while others simply "put their heads in the sand," unable to confront the reality that such tragedies could happen to anyone.The most powerful takeaway is a call to action: if you see someone struggling, reach out without judgment. The people who appear to be doing well might be fighting the hardest battles behind closed doors. A simple act of kindness could make all the difference. Don't be afraid to tell people you love them, give them a hug, and be there when they need support.Join us as we examine this critical issue affecting communities nationwide and discuss how compassion might be our most powerful tool in addressing America's youth mental health crisis. This episode ends with Industry News, stay informed with Towing News Now

Back in December 2024, I got an email from Tom Rademacher raving about an upcoming book from a teacher who is now a licensed counselor that read, “The thing that hooked me when I read it the first time was a whole part on teachers recognizing their own triggers to their anger and stress and learning to understand and adapt to them... but the whole thing is gorgeous.” The author was of course my guest today, Maria Munro-Schuster, and the book, which is now in print, is The Empathetic Classroom: How A Mental Health Mindset Supports Your Students – And You, which the HRP team was more than thrilled to contribute the forward:“The Empathetic Classroom provides therapeutic self-reflection activities and prompts for educators and colleagues, the psychological theories underpinning them, guidance for applying them with students, and scalable activities for classroom implementation. Maria Munro-Schuster's call to consider the mundane over measurement is essential in improving the current state of education. This proactive approach acknowledges that we are all learners and that all of humanity has something to gain from this mission. We can create school climates that are no longer so arid that a single spark or gust of wind sets everything ablaze. If we can do this we may find that the fires are more manageable and less frequent.”Order: The Empathetic Classroom (Teacher Created Materials)

On 26 April 26, this year, 11 people were killed after a car was driven into a crowd at a street festival in Vancouver. Dozens more were injured, making it the deadliest attack in the city's history. The youngest victim was just five years old. The accused, 30-year-old Adam Kai-Ji Lo, remains in custody while facing numerous charges of second-degree murder. Shortly after the attack, authorities confirmed that he was ‘being supervised under the Mental Health Act' at the time of the attack.This case has sparked a conversation about mental health and the way it is dealt with, or not, in the city. Sam Gruet travels to Vancouver, British Columbia to ask if the city, and wider province, is facing a mental health crisis, exploring how a mixture of cuts and a worsening opioid crisis has led some to call for drastic action. This episode of The Documentary comes to you from Assignment, investigations and journeys into the heart of global events.

Send us a textModern medicine rests on a centuries‑old decision to split mind from body. That fault line still runs through every clinic and classroom, raising an uncomfortable question: if the foundation ignores half of human experience, how scientific are we really? In this episode, Dr Eeks talks with physician‑author Dr Robert Smith about why his new book Has Medicine Lost Its Mind? argues it is time to reunite what never should have been divided. What We CoverThe Great Split: A medieval Church decree let scientists dissect bodies but barred them from the head, setting up the mental‑vs‑physical divide that still guides clinical practice.Primary‑Care Patchwork: Family doctors now manage roughly 75 percent of U.S. mental‑health care despite minimal formal training in mental health.Medicalizing Real‑Life Messes: Trauma, chronic stress, and tough social conditions often get reframed as diseases because the system lacks better options.The “Complex” Patient Label: How “complex” often translates to “we're overwhelmed and don't know what's really wrong.”Culture on Autopilot: Rituals, hierarchy, and resistance to change can block genuine healing even when evidence points elsewhere.A Way Forward: The biopsychosocial model that addresses lab values and life stories—and what it would take for mainstream medicine to embrace it.If you have ever felt that your doctor's office visit left half of you outside the exam room, press play and join the conversation about what real, whole‑person healthcare could look like. Dr. Robert C. Smith is a nationally acclaimed authority on evidence‑based mental health care and doctor–patient communication. A University Distinguished Professor of Medicine and Psychiatry at Michigan State University, he pioneered the first patient‑centered training approach that teaches clinicians how to forge strong, collaborative relationships with their patients. His contributions have earned him numerous honors, including Master status from the American College of Physicians and the prestigious George Engel Award for Outstanding Research. Dr. Smith has authored more than 150 peer‑reviewed articles and continues to garner hundreds of academic citations each year. His expertise has been featured in outlets such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Today Show, and he writes regularly for Psychology Today. You can contact Dr. Eeks at bloomingwellness.com.Follow Eeks on Instagram here.Or Facebook here.Or X.On Youtube.Or TikTok.SUBSCRIBE to her monthly newsletter here!

Sam Parfitt is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of The True Athlete Project. He holds an MSc in Sport Policy, Management and International Development from the University of Edinburgh, where he then became an associate tutor. His dissertation focused on the role of sport coaches as social change-makers, basing his research at The Crags Centre - a community sports center in an area of high deprivation in Scotland, where Sam was the sport-for-wellbeing manager. ​Sam is a certified mindfulness teacher and a USPTA professional tennis coach, with experience coaching all ages and standards - from total beginners to internationally-ranked juniors. A former tennis player, Parfitt won the 2006 London Youth Games and three British Tour doubles titles before moving to the United States in 2009 on a division one college tennis scholarship where he became a two-time All American Scholar Athlete. ​While Sam suffered with much ill health during his time in the States, Sam endeavored to use his experiences in sport - both positive and negative - to help others. His academic work centered around sport and identity, and he became intimately involved in establishing projects which used sport as an agent for social change. Thus, the True Athlete Project was born.

In this explosive and highly anticipated episode, Dr. Roger McFillin hosts Dr. Ragy Girgis, a Columbia University Professor of Psychiatry and researcher, for a no-holds-barred confrontation that exposes the shocking divisions tearing apart the mental health field. What begins as a conversation about mass violence research rapidly explodes into a devastating examination of psychiatric medicine's crumbling foundations, questionable effectiveness, and devastating potential harms. The two clash in fierce, unrelenting disagreements over fundamental issues including the validity of DSM diagnoses, the debunked "chemical imbalance" theory of depression, dangerous SSRI safety cover-ups and black box warnings, corrupted research quality and pharmaceutical industry manipulation, and the catastrophic crisis of psychiatric drug overprescription poisoning 1 in 4-5 Americans. Dr. Girgis desperately defends traditional academic psychiatry and current treatment approaches, while Dr. McFillin ruthlessly dismantles the entire paradigm, arguing that the current system is systematically creating chronic mental illness rather than healing it. Buckle up for this brutal intellectual warfare.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Throughout the interview, Dr. Girgis repeatedly stated that "the data is clear" while dismissing contradictory evidence that challenges his conclusions. For our listeners' benefit, I have compiled research and documentation that directly disputes several of Dr. Girgis's key claims.Serotonin Hypothesis of Depression1. The serotonin theory of depression: a systematic umbrella review of the evidence (Moncrieff et al.)Conclusions: "This review suggests that the huge research effort based on the serotonin hypothesis has NOT produced convincing evidence of a biochemical basis to depression. This is consistent with research on many other biological markers . We suggest it is time to acknowledge that the serotonin theory of depression is NOT empirically substantiated."2.What has serotonin to do with depression?Conclusions: "Simple biochemical theories that link low levels of serotonin with depressed mood are no longer tenable."3.

The 1988 document indicated that 3.7 percent of patients attempted suicide while on the blockbuster drug, a rate more than 12 times that cited for any of four other commonly used antidepressants.In addition, the paper said that 1.6 percent of patients reported incidents of hostility -- more than double the rate reported by patients on any of four other commonly used antidepressants."Examples of Violence after Prescription in legal system (Sample)January 24, 2020 – Newcastle, South Dublin, Ireland: Deirdre Morley, 44, smothered and killed her two sons Conor, 9, and Darragh, 7, and her three-year-old daughter Carla McGinley in their family home.

He then turned the gun on his 58-year-old wife in the living room of their house, before placing a call to police alerting them to his crimes.

His parents blame his actions on his having been misprescribed Zoloft. After a report by his school principal that the teen was depressed and might harm himself, he “returned to therapy,” and after a recommendation by a psychologist, the family's pediatrician prescribed the antidepressant Zoloft. From January through March leading up to the incident, the dosages were increased. During this time, his mother said she observed her son's behavior change—becoming increasingly irritable and hostile and saying bizarre things.October 21, 2013 – Sparks, Nevada: 12-year-old Jose Reyes opened fire at Sparks Middle School, killing a teacher and wounding two classmates be...

Our mental health crisis isn't mysterious - it's the predictable result of systematic cultural programming designed to keep us medicated, divided, and compliant. Dr. Roger McFillin conducts a disturbing deep-dive investigation into America's most popular cultural content to uncover the hidden forces driving our unprecedented mental health epidemic. His shocking discoveries include the Call Her Daddy podcast, where thousands of teenage girls celebrate STDs as feminist achievements, and mainstream media outlets that casually normalize genocide and mass violence as dinner table conversation. Dr. McFillin exposes what he believes is a coordinated three-phase assault on human psychological well-being: first, destroy healthy models of self-worth; second, desensitize the population to violence and dehumanization through media conditioning; and finally, capture these wounded souls through pharmaceutical dependency disguised as healthcare. The solution isn't more pills or endless therapy sessions - it's awakening to these toxic cultural narratives and choosing to resist them. Because once you see the programming, you cannot unsee it.

Are we really facing an unprecedented mental health crisis in America, or have we been misreading the data? As parents everywhere grapple with The Anxious Generation's claims that smartphones are rewiring our children's brains, this episode takes a closer look at what the research actually shows about youth mental health trends. If you've read the book, you've seen those alarming hockey-stick graphs showing dramatic increases in teen depression and anxiety in teenagers. But what if those "surges" aren't quite what they seem? What if changes in how we diagnose and track mental health conditions are inflating the crisis? And what happens when a community with everything that should protect kids - tight social bonds, involved parents, shared values - still experiences devastating teen suicide rates? This deep-dive analysis examines the evidence behind Gen Z mental health claims, investigates whether youth depression statistics show the dramatic surge described in The Anxious Generation, and asks the crucial question: are we fighting the right battle when it comes to protecting our children's wellbeing? Questions This Episode Will Answer Is there really a mental health crisis in America? While youth mental health challenges are real, the "crisis" narrative may be overblown due to changes in diagnostic practices and data collection methods since 2010. When did the mental health crisis start according to The Anxious Generation? Haidt claims the crisis began between 2010-2015 with smartphone adoption, but the data shows more complex patterns that predate this timeline. What are the signs of youth depression and anxiety that parents should watch for? The episode explores how reported signs of youth depression and anxiety have increased, but examines whether this reflects actual increases or better identification and reporting. We look at the classic signs of depression and anxiety in teens, as well as what to look for in teens who might 'seem fine.' How many teens have mental health issues compared to previous generations? Teen mental health statistics show increases, but when examined closely, many changes are smaller than dramatic graphs suggest. What causes anxiety in teenagers beyond social media? Research shows that other factors may explain larger portions of youth mental health struggles than screen time. What You'll Learn in This Episode How changes in diagnostic criteria and healthcare access may have inflated mental health crisis statistics since 2015 Why teen suicide rates show different patterns than depression rates, and what this means for understanding youth struggles The real story behind those alarming youth depression statistics and why context matters when interpreting data How academic pressure in high-achieving communities can drive teen mental health problems even without social media Why focusing solely on anxiety in teenagers related to screens might miss bigger factors affecting Gen Z mental health What signs of youth depression actually tell us about the scope and causes of teen mental health challenges How different communities experience and conceptualize mental health struggles in ways that challenge universal assumptions Why the timeline of the supposed mental health crisis in the U.S. and elsewhere doesn't align with smartphone adoption as clearly as The Anxious Generation claims Dr. Jonathan Haidt's Book The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness (Affiliate link) Jump to highlights 00:53 Introduction...

We want to hear from you! Send us a question or comment.What happens when the soothing glow of screens becomes a dangerous escape hatch for our children's emotions? In this revealing episode, addiction interventionist Matt Brown tackles the increasingly alarming phenomenon of screen addiction sweeping through younger generations.Drawing from groundbreaking research published in the Journal of American Medicine, Matt explores how digital dependency correlates with rising rates of depression, anxiety, and even suicidal ideation among adolescents. The findings are sobering: nearly 18% of youth in the study reported suicidal thoughts, with addiction to screens—not merely screen time—being the critical factor. Most troublingly, many children as young as ten report using devices "to forget about problems," mirroring the exact psychological patterns seen in substance addiction.This conversation strikes particularly close to home as Matt candidly admits his own struggles with healthy technology boundaries. "I find myself using technology in unhealthy ways too," he confesses, highlighting the unique challenge parents face: how can we guide our children when we're fighting the same battle? Rather than offering simplistic solutions, Matt invites listeners into a thoughtful reflection on modeling healthier relationships with technology and creating family environments where digital devices enhance rather than replace human connection.Whether you're a parent worried about your child's screen habits, an educator witnessing changing classroom dynamics, or someone questioning your own relationship with technology, this episode offers valuable perspective on one of modern life's most pervasive addictions.

Mental Health Crisis in Rankin County – The Clay Edwards Show, Episode 1,010   I'm diving headfirst into what I'm calling a full-blown mental health crisis in Rankin County, Mississippi, and I'm dubbing it “Goon Squad Derangement Syndrome.” This isn't just about isolated incidents—it's a pattern of erratic, unhinged behavior that I see spiraling out of control, tied to the fallout from the infamous “Goon Squad” case where deputies tortured two Black men in 2023. I'm talking about folks in Rankin County acting like they're auditioning for chaos, from blowing whistles and dressing like Foot Locker employees to getting arrested multiple times in a single day. I'm pointing fingers at a few specific individuals—one I believe is convinced he was a victim of the Goon Squad, another who seems disappointed he wasn't, and a third who's got the nerve to call me a snitch while playing whistleblower himself.   This “Goon Squad Derangement Syndrome” has people so obsessed with the idea of police brutality that I think they're trying to provoke it, almost like they're chasing fame or a lawsuit by willing confrontations into existence. It's June, Men's Mental Health Awareness Month, and I'm sounding the alarm: these men are in crisis, and their loved ones need to stop enabling them. I'm urging families to push for serious help—check these guys into a facility like St. Dominic's or Whitfield for evaluation. I'm dealing with this mess myself, having pressed charges against one of these clowns, and I'm done ignoring their antics. This syndrome is real, it's destructive, and it's tearing at Rankin County's fabric, fueled by the Goon Squad's shadow.
